Would you believe they'll start shooting the sequel next month, and expect to have it finished later this year? Good grief.

Saw this last night. All I am willing to say is that this film brought out emotions I had never felt before in a film. As an emotional product, this film succeeds brilliantly. The only hope for humanity that I took away was the belief that this circumstance had never actually happened, and all those emotions I felt were only inside my head. Had this been based on a true story, I might have found myself very sick an hour into the film. 10/10 stars for being the most disturbing movie I've ever seen.

Indeed, I don't recall a movie ever being as repulsive and oddly intriguing at the same time. It's kind of a tug of war between curiosity and knowing the limit of what I can stomach. Common sense is still winning, but I'm slowly wearing it down. This discussion is how I work up the nerve, which is something I haven't had to do for a horror movie since I was a kid. Based on my reaction to the trailer, I'd say it could be difficult. Violence, mayhem, supernatural horror are fine, but torture and misery I can't stand to watch, even when it's as far-fetched as this, and this one is designed to push buttons. But being that I haven't been scared to watch any movie since I was a kid, I'll be damned if this silly sh!t-eating caterpillar movie is going to be the exception.

If Troma ever gets the rights to this movie, that's what it's going to end up getting retitled.  I betcha.

Wow... amazing how opinions can differ.  I wasn't disturbed  by this at all, more just made a little queasy.  I guess other people are just more affected by this idea than I am.  The less plausible something is, the less disturbing I find it.

But it's clear opinions are strongly divided on this one.  Many people hate it, like i did.  Fangoria and Film Threat both gave it negative reviews.  

SALO and PINK FLAMINGOS count as the most disturbing movies I've ever seen, and I wouldn't give either of them a perfect score because of it.  I honestly don't see why being disturbing is praiseworthy.  I'm sure I would find TWO GIRLS ONE CUP disturbing, but I doubt I would give it a high rating.

There's not really much further you can go with multi-legged critters. Unless you want to do a "Boxing Helena" on the chick in the middle and make the Human Inchworm.
